Review on πŸ”¬ Enhance Your Microbiology Study with Microscope Slides: Expertly Prepared Specimens by Derek Cage

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best kits I've seen

There may not be a substitute for preparing your own slides, but the reality is that many of us don't have the time or resources to do it (especially when it deals with some of the more exotic examples), so pre-made slide sets are a must for any teacher. I work as a tutor (in various subjects) and often let my students look through my microscope when we are working on biology. So I've bought a few sets of slides over the years, but this is by far one of the best I've seen (including some specimens I'd never seen in a microscope before, so I was particularly excited about this). As described, it contains 120 slides representing a fairly wide range of specimens. They are all well prepared and easy to view under a microscope (a few samples could have been better centered on the slides but it didn't hurt so can't complain). Each slide is individually labeled and a full and numbered list is provided on the inside of the box to help you quickly find what you are looking for. If you have a microscope, you should definitely buy one of these kits. It's perfect for teachers (and tutors like me) as well as home teachers or just the curious. This is a great way to give students a chance to see the mysterious world of biology with their own eyes.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
